A power tool repair technician diagnoses and makes repairs on gas-, air-, and electric-powered tools, such as band saws, drills, and nail guns.
Power tool repair professionals read technical manuals, disassemble tools, and use testing devices, such as ammeters and voltmeters, to identify problems.
They may be responsible for rebuilding defective mechanical parts and rewiring electrical systems, including soldering or coating wires for proper installation.
Power tool repair technicians also must prepare paperwork and keep stock of parts.
